Notably, Ricky has said he wanted to 'pull the brakes' when Boogie was in danger of being lynched, but later voted for him anyway.Perhaps a case of throwing someone else under the bus to protect yourself, but unlikely with a small mafia, like I said.
Hopefully I can shed some light on this. I remember that last vote to Boogie being at a time where town was still split on a vote with Boogie in the lead (Skraal had maybe 1, POSSIBLY 2 votes but more likely 1), there were only a few hours left in the phase, and I was about to start an afternoon-to-late-night shift that would keep me out until the phase end. I didn't want the day to end in a no-vote, so I put my vote back on the most likely choice for the time (and Skraal turned out to be a terrible choice so...)
He also was the first to bring up the godfather theory, though he too noted that it wasn't set in stone.
Semantics, I was actually the second, though I had written it only to go back and see Fenris having mentioned the same possibility. So yeah, I would have brought it up regardless if anybody else had which probably keeps to the spirit of what you're saying here.
